MY PHYSICS LESSONS

Over 30 years I teach Physics in a secondary school, out of which 20 last years I teach Regents Physics course in NYC public high school. In the beginning there were a chalk and a blackboard, and then came multicolored dry erase markers and a whiteboard. Today we operate with Promethean board, which is a real blessing for a creative teacher. Over past several years, once the flipchart culture invaded my classroom, I started building the collection of my Physics lessons, changing, improving, and polishing them from year to year.

My Physics Lessons – is the series of classroom presentations created for Promethean board using ActiveInspire software. The advantage of flipchart format compared to PDF or PowerPoint is obvious: you as a teacher have a complete freedom to adjust the presentation up to your current goals, needs and creativity. But the most important feature of a flipchart lesson – INTERACTIVITY! Students solve problems right on the board in a front of the class.

If you currently do not have Promethean board in your classroom, this file can be easily converted into PDF format. All you need is to download FREE ActiveInspire software to your computer. Also, convert flipchart to PDF to make printouts of any pages.

My Physics Lessons are reflecting New York State Regents Physics curriculum (not AP Physics!). They contain everything a student needs to prepare for the Regents exam. Taking notes in class and/or printing out my presentations at home in combination with Barron’s Regents Physics book (red) is all my students need to successfully pass the quizzes, tests and final exam.

Each lesson starts with a front page that I call Lesson Starter. It includes: the date, Aim, Do Now assignment and the Unit’s Essential Question(s). Every lesson ends with a set of real Regents problems offered in the last 10 years. This collection is FREE ADDENDUM!!!
(Note: some fonts I use for texts can be missing in your computer. Simply change the font to what you like more.)

Since many Physics topics are taught in other courses (Chemistry, Earth Science, Physical Science, General Science, etc.) these lessons could be useful for any Science teacher.
